<a name="Introduction"></a><h2> <span class="mw-headline"> Introduction </span></h2>
<p>This page intends to provide guidance to translators of the Hugin project. Some terminology is very specific or used in a specific way in hugin, making it hard to find a close translation that fits the context of hugin in another language than English.
</p>

<a name="Technical_translation_issues"></a><h2> <span class="mw-headline"> Technical translation issues </span></h2>
<p>Some strings don't appear to be translated, they are apparently generated by the GUI toolkit or the operating system. Most likely they will be in the same language as hugin, because very few people, other than translators, start a program with a specific language other than that of the environment.
</p><p>If you find a source term that isn't correct, spelling or meaning, probably best to bring it up with Pablo d'Angelo or on the hugin mailinglist: [1]

<a name="Running_hugin_in_a_specific_language"></a><h3> <span class="mw-headline"> Running hugin in a specific language </span></h3>
<p>If you want to run hugin in another language than the default, use the following command (Linux with UTF8):
</p>
<pre>$ LANG=nl_NL.utf8 hugin
</pre>
<p>This will start hugin in dutch. Other languages have different names of course, try looking in <tt>/usr/share/i18n/locales/</tt>.
</p>
<a name="Getting_Started_on_translations"></a><h2> <span class="mw-headline"> Getting Started on translations </span></h2>
<p>In general, you need the latest *.po files (or at least the one for the language you want to modify), these are either in the SVN repository or here.
</p><p>To edit the *.po files, use poedit or kbabel, poedit is a cross-platform PO files editor which runs on Mac OS X, Unix and Windows, kbabel runs on any KDE platform. PO files use the ISO 639-1 naming convention. Use that list to name new language versions or ask the developers list for assistance. 
</p><p>Submit your edited translation via hugin's patches tracker on sourceforge.
</p><p>NB: When using poedit, editing comments directly in the right pane doesn't work, the text isn't saved into the .po file. To edit comments, use the "edit comment" dialogue from the menu.
</p><p>Here are some basic instructions for different platforms to get started:
</p>
<a name="Linux"></a><h3> <span class="mw-headline"> Linux </span></h3>
<p>First of all, you need to get the sources, best to get the latest SVN version. See [link to getting hugin from svn]
</p><p>The translation source is in <tt>hugin/src/translations</tt> and they are files with extension <tt>.po</tt>. These files can be opened and edited using poedit or kbabel. If poedit is not installed, try installing poedit using your favourite/available package manager or get poedit from sourceforge.
</p><p>After making changes, the new translation must be activated. Either you can copy the *.mo file that poedit created when you saved the file to <tt>/usr/local/share/locale/nl/LC_MESSAGES/hugin.mo</tt> (substitute your language abbreviation for nl) or hugin source must be rebuilt and installed to see the effect. Rebuilding hugin doesn't have to be a heavy job when you only changed the .po file, the process only updates that part.
</p><p>See above on how to start hugin in a specific language.
